Who tells you that John Mahama is interested in fighting corruption?

If he is he must (1) RETURN MERCHANT BANK TO ITS OWNERS, (2) SANCTION AFRIYIE ANKRAH THE CRYING THIEF, (3) STOP PLAYING PRANKS WITH WAYOME, ISOFOTON AND OTHER JUDGEMENT DEPTS THAT WERE FRAUDULENTLY PAID.

John is himself the number one thief, so how can he discipline thieves. He has to steal to look after his 23 or so children. Therefore all hands on deck. All appointees must must take whatever they can grab. This man is simply unfit to be president.

Ghana will definitely be better off without John Mahama. The monies being given to our very stupid chiefs is stolen money. it is monies that should go to repair our roads.

Why should an ordinary city Mayor has a convoy of cars with siren blaring to escort him to his office? This Vanderpuije guy lived in South Carolina, USA for decades and even the Governor of that state is not escorted to his office with sirenslet alone the Mayor of Charleston.

This guy is a crook who misappropriated funds from the school he was the Principal or Vice Principal. Sack the idiot, ASAP.

Who gave him that authority to ride with escorted siren blaring convoy?

This is sickening. Why are some of our leaders misbehaving like that. Is he now the president or what? We don't have much and yet we waste resources on unnecessary stuff.
He has no right to do that and the police too.

Where is the support of indiscipline in this story? This is just a show of immaturity on the part of a former NC teacher turn to a mayor. If a motorist is driving too close to a public officer despite a blowing siren, you do not stop in the middle of the road and shot off the tires to cause more traffic delays. Just arrest the motorist. By the way if the final destination of these public officers were so important to use siren to clear traffic flow why do they have to stop to cause more traffic delay………….

Ei Mahama , is this what you and your ilk are doing to our country? Awurade. Who advises Mahama. Cant you see that the Mayor vanderpuije is fast garnering public wrath against your government?
oh my God
Just yesterday I was eavesdroping a conversation by a number of young men and women and I was sad to learn that thousands of young people with very good grades but had D7 in maths and as such cannot enrol at any university in the country. I approached them and they confirmed that Ghana was gradually building an army of youth with D7 maths who were just wasting away at home. Mahama D7 at the Wassce is a pass and this will not prevent anyone from entering any university in any part of the world. No longer armed robbery is on the increase in Ghana let the D7 holders gain admission to the Ghana's universities now. Mahama you are shocking Ghanaians cant you see? Come 2016, these thousands of youth with D7 maths at wassce will vote you out because their numbers are swelling all over the ten regions of Ghana.

The lawyer should not agree to a amicable resolution of this lawlessness. What in heaven's name is Ghana coming to? If it's not armed robbers, it's stupid officials disrespecting the rule of law.

What is Ghana up to? Contract killings and now this sort of drive-by shooting or kidnapping whatever you call it? Ghana is turning into a lawless country. During my days in Ghana, all these abnormalities were foreign to Ghana because the country was a God and blood-fearing but now look at what is constantly going on without end in sight. THIS SAVAGE WAY OF LIVING MUST BE STOPPED.People read or hear about such events abroad and they emulate it.The government must step in to curb this savage way of living.Capital punishment must be introduced to execute all murderers found guilty.This does not fit the image of Ghana I knew. Shame unto all of us.

I don't believe the cop opened fire on the orders of the mayor. The mayor has no right to ask the policeman to shoot. At the police academy policemen are taught when to resort to the use of firearms and this include when the policeman's life is in immediate danger or life and property are in immediate danger and all means to defend himself is the use of firearms. In this case there was no evidence that somebody's life was in immediate danger. The mayor is not a military or a policeman as such he had nomandate to order the police to shoot. If the cop opened fire because the mayor asked him to do so then he is AvAvery stupid policeman. IGP should deal with him according to what the police rules say.

Vanderpuije is an arrogant bully and the lawyer needs to file a formal complaint against him and the police who shot at his tires. Vanderpuije may be the AMA boss, but he certainly is not the king of the Greater Accra area.

There has been somany issues with the manner in which the AMA boss Okoe Vanderpuye has been misusing his position in the city of Accr. But to the utmost surprise of everyone, the President who appointed him has kept his eyes and ears away from thE public outcry to deal with the Mayor. The siren happy Mayor has taken the lawyer into his own hands in the city. Thank God this time round he is dealing with a lawyer, and i urge the lawyer whose car tires was shot at to take both the Policeman and thne Mayor to court.Such a Mayor is contemplating to run as the MP in the Ablekuma area, and i hope the people in that area will remember all this negative atitudes he has come the elction period.I urge Parliament to move for his removal from office aaas the Mayor
